1.A Jealous God
Deuteronomy 4:23-24: Be careful not to forget the covenant of the LORD your God that he
made with you; do not make for yourselves an idol in the form of anything the LORD your
God has forbidden. For the LORD your God is a consuming fire, a jealous God.
Exodus 34:12-14: Be careful not to make a treaty with those who live in the land where
you are going, or they will be a snare among you. Break down their altars, smash their
sacred stones and cut down their Asherah poles. Do not worship any other god, for the
LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God.

2. Jealous Commandments
Deuteronomy 5:7-10: "You shall have no other gods before me. You shall not make for
yourself an idol in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in
the waters below. You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the LORD your
God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the fathers to the third and
fourth generation of those who hate me, but showing love to a thousand [generations]
of those who love me and keep my commandments."

3. Jealous Anger
Deuteronomy 6:13-19: Fear the LORD your God, serve him only and take your oaths in his
name. Do not follow other gods, the gods of the peoples around you; for the LORD your
God, who is among you, is a jealous God and his anger will burn against you, and he will
destroy you from the face of the land.
1 Kings 14:22: Judah did evil in the eyes of the LORD. By the sins they committed they
stirred up his jealous anger more than their fathers had done.
Nahum 1:2-3: The LORD is a jealous and avenging God; the LORD takes vengeance and is
filled with wrath. The LORD takes vengeance on his foes and maintains his wrath against
his enemies. The LORD is slow to anger and great in power; the LORD will not leave the
guilty unpunished.

Genesis 30:1: When Rachel saw that she was not bearing Jacob any children, she became
jealous of her sister. So she said to Jacob, "Give me children, or I'll die!"
Genesis 37:10-11: When he told his father as well as his brothers, his father rebuked him
and said, "What is this dream you had? Will your mother and I and your brothers actually
come and bow down to the ground before you?" His brothers were jealous of him, but
his father kept the matter in mind.
1 Samuel 18:8-9: Saul was very angry; this refrain galled him. "They have credited David
with tens of thousands," he thought, "but me with only thousands. What more can he
get but the kingdom?" And from that time on Saul kept a jealous eye on David.

husband, to Christ, so that I might present you as a pure virgin to him. But I am afraid

astray from your sincere and pure devotion to Christ.
